This car wheel, called Whirlpoolo, is inspired by the propellers of an airplane. The emergency braking of the car will cause the brake pads to rub against the brake discs at high speed, generating huge heat, and if it cannot be cooled down quickly, it will shorten the life of the brake components. This air-absorbing car wheel can continuously supply air to the brake disc while running, helping to reduce the large amount of heat generated by the brake disc when braking, and achieve the green design goal of extending product life.
